Comments:

At first, i was surprised to see so many famous faces in the film. And since everybody is important, you really don't know who is the central of the story. Each person has their own story line, so it's amazing to see them all in one movie and don't make you confuse with the whole chaos in it. The movie was great and to gather all those A-list stars are not an easy job, so i think the director has made a great job. Everybody is important in the movie. Awesome ^_^

Fun facts:

• Sam Worthington, Jake Gyllenhaal and Orlando Bloom all turned down the role of Holden. Worthington also turned down the role of Sean Jackson
• Felicia has the number 13 drawn on her hand it's actually Swift's lucky number.
  
• Jennifer Aniston, Sandra Bullock and Jodie Foster all turned down the role of Captain Kate Hazeltine

Toby's afraid and no one to talk to, Julia never reply his mails, but then he finds out that all Julia's mail are being held by Dr. Burns. With Julia stays in the hospital, Toby doesn't feel any better nor trust anyone.

Comments:

Robert seriously need to find a better plotted movie after breaking dawn, and that means soon. This movie is boring. Not spooky or thrilling (i think it meant to be thrilling and spooky), and i have no idea what is the plot of the movie. Why Toby can't trust anyone? What means thing that Dr. Burns did other than Toby thinks he's suspicious? And the ending? For God sake, how can somebody is almost killed and not even scream? Sigh...no good

Comments:

I think this film portrayed many families in reality. Lots of children have problems with their parents and sometimes the problem grows bigger as the time goes by. And yes, to be supported with your family means a lot especially in rough times. You don't need to squeeze your eyebrows to see the movie, it's sweet and understandable. I love Robert Pattinson but my favorite guy in the movie is Pierce Brosnan ^_^, i see many real dads just like him in the film.

Fun facts:

• During breaks while doing a street scene, Robert Pattinson was injured as he tried to flee from fans and paparazzi. He did not watch where he was going and ran into a parked cab. His injuries were not major or life-threatening (ffiuh..)
• The movie obviously takes place in summer 2001, but in one scene, there is a Ford cargo van that did not come out until 2009.
• At the beginning of the movie Ally is given a lift to college by her father. When she leaves the house she is in a red top but when she gets out of the car it is khaki.

Comments:

I remember to see the A team in the only television station when i was a kid. The actions were great and since i always love to watch movie so mostly i watched the series. I can tell the remake is even better. I love to see Liam Neeson, Bradly Cooper, and even Sharlto Copley as Hannibal, Face, and Murdock. Buuuut, to see B.A. got enlightenment seem weird he he, i mean B.A? Enlightenment? You must be kidding. But overall, it's a great movie. The actions part was cool, the story line was exciting. Love it ^_^

Fun facts:

• When B.A. meets Hannibal, he says he was a member of the 4th Ranger Battalion. There are currently only 3 Battalions in the 75th Ranger Regiment. The 4th, 5th, & 6th Battalions were formed during and disbanded at the end of World War II.

• In the scene where Hannibal is being cremated: bodies are always put into some sort of container. Bodies are never placed "loose" in the chamber.

She begins to feel sad to realize that she's about to leave everything when she's changed. Edward tries to buy some time so Bella could stay human longer, and asks Bella to marry him if she insists him to change her. And tough Edward's condition makes her reluctant, Bella has no other way but accepts.
While having lunch, Alice is suddenly froze so Bella thinks she probably sees something regarding the Volturi, but Edward keeps saying nothing's wrong and remind Bella that she has an open ticket that need to use to visit her mom in Jacksonville.
While Edward and Bella away, the Cullens are preparing to catch Victoria, with Alice's vision, they try to intercept Victoria's way but failled when she disappears in Quileute territory and pushed to back away by several werewolf.

Bella and Jacob ride on motorcycle and left Edward worried by the time she comes back from Jacksonville, Jacob is furious to know that Bella is about to change as a vampire after graduation and wish Bella to die rather than being a vampire, this hurts Bella but Jacob determines to make Bella loves him since he believes that he suits Bella better than Edward.

meanwhile Alice is foreseeing an army of newborn vampire is coming to Forks that leads an alliance between the Cullens and Quiluete's werewolves.

Comments:

I can say i'm a huge fans of twilight saga, but somehow, this movie failed me. I can't see the big chemistry between Bella and Edward tough there were lot's of kisses, but still you can't feel the passion as you feel it when you read the book. And halo! Bella shouldn't be that tough and brave! Well, she's tough and brave but in a timid way, after all she's just human! But this movie's version Bella is waay tougher, like she's the vampire herself.
Anyway, i love Dakota Fanning, she's mean, i felt real crept by seeing her talking. The action parts were good, that's the part that made me stop complaint up until the end of the movie. I can't say this movie is as good as the book, cause it's not. Sigh...

Fun facts:

• During the scene where the Cullens are watching the news, the woman says "reporting live". She's in Seattle and it's night time there but at the Cullens' house we can see it's day time (through the window). Forks and Seattle are in the same time zone, therefore it should be the same time of the day in both places.
• It's mentioned a couple times that Riley (as a human) has been missing for over a year. But when Charlie is looking at the Missing Persons flyer, it says Riley was last seen in May 2010.
• It was revealed by Taylor Lautner in an interview that the censors required that the wolves have no genitalia whenever they appear on screen.
• Robert Pattinson refused to let his eyebrows be plucked/waxed down as they had been in the previous two films
